Welcome to the Black+White Photographer of the Year 2012

We are looking for the best black & white photographs from around the world – and we have a very special prize for the winner.

Leica Store Mayfair

Leica have unveiled their new expanded premises at the heart of Mayfair in London.
The Leica Store Mayfair continues to offer the entire range of Leica products. Above the store, the Leica Akademie training facility has been expanded to offer a wider range of workshops, one to one product demonstrations, advice sessions and private consultations.
Opposite the store is a new café-style area for Leica owners, where they can receive personal user advice and assistance. Next to this is a glass-partitioned laboratory, where light repairs and sensor cleaning can be done.
A new rental service provides equipment to influential international photographers and a gallery displays images created with Leica cameras.
On the second floor is a new professional photographic studio available for hire to photographers using the
Leica S-System.
